ABSTRACT
Facilitating client recovery from complex trauma is frequently perceived as a major challenge by therapists, who may feel overwhelmed by their clients' apparent fragility and vulnerability, the severity and complexity of their clients' problems, their difficulties to engage in a therapeutic relationship and, with this, the series of abandoned attempts at therapy in their clients' history. Further, traditional therapeutic frameworks, relying predominantly on language-based approaches and, less commonly, on body-centred methods alone, may only partially be able to meet this client population's multiple needs.
